2019 Tee Set Match Play Final

With 2018 Champion Jens Roestel on hand to support the finalists, Tee Set Inter-League Captain Simon Oxley and President Roger Finnie were back this week to battle out round 2 of the Match Play Final after last week’s draw.

Early skirmishes saw Roger take a 2 up lead which by the turn had grown to 4 up but a thrilling run of pars and birdies on the back 9 saw Simon pull himself back to only 1 down by the time they reached hole 16. An exchange of birdies on 16 and 17 saw the pair head down the 18th with Roger still 1 up and visions of a repeat of last week’s draw in both players minds. However, this week a steady par on the last saw Roger take the Ric Wymer Trophy with a 2up win.  Commiserations to our losing finalist, Simon Oxley and congratulations to both players for a well played match which ultimately took 36 holes to settle.

At the prize giving, our winner, Roger Finnie, was presented the Ric Wymer Match Play Trophy by the man himself and 2018’s champion.

The Day

Sunday was a rearranged game having advanced our visit to the challenging Riverside course by a week after Emeralda were unable to confirm a suitable time for our scheduled visit there.

A thank you to GM Peng Siong and the team at Riverside for making sure we had an enjoyable visit with the course in excellent condition and the bright sunshine ensuring we had a great day on the fast fairways and greens.

Our mini shot gun start saw the 29 Tee Setters head out as scheduled at 12pm and steady progress saw us finish in good time albeit sadly having lost a couple of our contingent to illness part of the way round. Hope you are feeling better today guys.!

5 newcomers this week and a warm Tee Set welcome was given to Richard Berg, Timo Landgren, Tapio Jarvenpaa, Warut Waramit ad Leith Day. A warm welcome back to Dan Brod after 2 years and Michal Lukasik after 4 months.

 

Many thanks to VP Ric Wymer for managing all the registrations and scoring with the President being somewhat distracted with the Match Play final and to Lis Wymer for her assistance in the prize giving. Photos of the day are here.

The Play

 

With the course playing fast those hitting it straight got some good roll but anything wayward would be punished by some tricky holes and unforgiving bushes along side the fairways. The challenge Riverside presents was seen in the results where only 4 players beat net par this week.

The fast fairways were not enough to help our lone skirt on the day with Michael Mueller relishing his time in the spotlight once all dressed up. No Monster putter this week with the greens playing so well but Most Strokes was picked up by newcomer, Warut Waramit. Warut was to recover his fine however with Most Improved.

First Sandy went to Samret Raungrit and First Birdie to Joseph D’Cruz whilst Low Putts went to Christine Lie.

First Par handicaps => 30 went to Mike Riley whilst GM Peng Siong took home Low Gross. Low Net honours went to Roger Finnie, Arnold Castillon and Michal Lukasik although an initial input error saw Michael Mueller stepping up for the photo – I trust you sorted out the beers gentlemen later on :- ) but in the meantime a quick edit of the photo to ensure we have the right faces in the picture….

Congratulations to all our winners and detailed results are here: Results riverside 061019

Riverside

A change to our advertised schedule has been forced upon us as Emeralda are unable to confirm a tee time for us next Sunday due to a large competition on that morning. With Inter-League also being postponed the following week, we have therefore decided to head a week early back to Riverside to enjoy this excellent but challenging Greg Norman design.

Visually stunning off the tee boxes, the trademark optical illusions of the Shark’s designs can fool the unwary but the good service and facilities ensure we can all have a nice day out.

Sunday 29th September 2019 Cengkareng

Posted on September 30, 2019 by rogerfinnie

The Day

The excellent hospitality, cold margaritas and the opportunity to play one of Jakarta’s nicest and friendliest courses made for an attractive offer this week as we headed out as usual to Cengkareng on the last Sunday of the month. A few late cancellations saw 32 Tee Setters arrive for our Monthly Medal, round 2 of Cycle XI of the Eclectic, to witness the presentation of the Tee Set Match-Play Championship and generally to enjoy a round with friends under bright sunny skies with a gentle breeze blowing to keep things interesting.

         

2017 Match-Play Champion Jari Antikainen took the opportunity to lay his hands on the Ric Wymer Cup one more time capturing a great photo in front the 18th green before the round.

4 newcomers this week with a warm Tee Set welcome to Wayne Rideout, Dave Barnes, Michael Ha and Jeremy Halma. Some long welcome backs also headed by Weera Limjirakajorn after 66 weeks followed not too far behind for Minoj Mishra and Chris Cromarty who were 1 year between games.

     

Many thanks to our Secretary on the day, Brenda Mayland and VP Ric Wymer for managing all the registrations and scoring.

Lots of photos this week too so check them out here.

 

The Play

After a pre-match photo with VP Ric Wymer and his eponymous Cup , our finalists Simon Oxley and Roger Finnie were unable to separate themselves over 18 holes in the Tee Set Match-Play final. Neither managed to get more than 1 hole up and the lead changed on 12 occasions as both players put aside a nervy start to shoot back 9’s of 38 strokes to finish all square. With 6 weeks to go before the final winner must be determined, they have decided to to do it all again over 18 holes at the next Tee Set event.

Whilst our protagonists were reliving the final, we carried on with the rest of the presentations which as usual started with the skirts; 3 on the day with Amol Singhal, Shawn Berg and Andrew Shaw all being called up for the photo. Weera Limjirakajorn was our Monster Putter and Richard D’Cruz had Most Strokes in our other fines on the day.

A tie for First Par Handicaps >=30 saw Timo Karonen and Indar Dhaliwal both awarded the prize with Matt Otto taking Most Improved. Low Putts also resulted in a tie with Mark Johnson and Joseph D’Cruz being our awardees on the day.

First Birdie went to Chris Cromarty, First Sandy Andy Briston and Low Gross to Wayne Rideout.

      

Our net winners on the day were Chris Cromarty, Matt McGowan and Andrew Shaw (Matt Otto losing on a count-back but standing up to collect on his behalf..)

On the Monthly Medal prizes, Long Drive went to Manoj Mishra and Nearest the Pin to Matt Otto.

 

Our Monthly Medalist for September with an excellent 43 points despite wiping the last was Tom Grace.

Congratulations to all our winners on the day and detailed scores are here: Form_ Current Results for CGK 29 Sep 19

Whilst there is a lot to attract players for this week, we also welcome those who just wish to enjoy a pleasant trip across the rolling fairways, guided round by Cengkareng’s well trained caddies and then to sit and enjoy one of its famous Margaritas to cool you down afterwards.

Sunday will see the final of the Tee Set Match Play Championship being played with either Inter-League Captain, Simon Oxley, or President, Roger Finnie, being crowned as the 2019 Champion. The winner will also be the recipient of the Ric Wymer Trophy presently held by 2018 champion, Jens Roestel.

Reminder: For those who would prefer not to walk, in addition to the hover boards to glide across the rolling fairways, Cengkareng has available a limited number of golf carts. If you wish to reserve one please contact the Golf reservations staff at Cengkareng directly. As the carts are limited in number and we do not have visibility to those already booked on the day, your Tee Set Committee is not involved to the reservation of the carts

Sunday 22nd September 2019 Padang Modern

Posted on September 23, 2019 by rogerfinnie

The Day

A quiet day at Modern with a few late cancellations and other events elsewhere on Sunday seeing just 4 flights heading out for our weekly event. With the starter getting us off bang on time and placing the other groups opposite to us, we were to enjoy a quick round under bright sunny skies.

Play was finished by just after 4pm and with the small numbers, we were all completed with the scoring by 4.30pm. This left us plenty of time to celebrate with our 2 birthday boys, Geoff Thwaites and Jeff Durham before heading home in time to catch which-ever sporting event was the preferred flavour on what was a busy Sunday evening of events.

Rafa Hussein was our sole newcomer on the day and he was given a warm Tee Set welcome. Welcome backs to Richard D’Cruz and father Joseph D’Cruz along with Jochen Overberg, Pieter Nielen-Groen and Matt McGowan.

Many thanks to VP Ric Wymer for managing the scoring on the day and photos can be found here: Photos Modern

 The Play

14 players made it to the results sheet with just Tan Chee Hwa failing to get a mention at the end of the day; so you are note left out Tan 🙂 ….

Some winners were also fined with our sole skirt on the day, Pieter Nielen-Groen taking home first Birdie and Most Strokes awardee Geoff Thwaites also winning First Sandy. Geoff was joined by Jari Antikainen, Jochen Overberg and Timo Karonen for Most Strokes. Completing the fines was Richard D’Cruz who had trouble on the greens and thus was awarded Monster Putter.

Not to be out-done by his playing partner, our other birthday boy, Jeff Durham celebrated winning Most Improved. VP Ric Wymer’s hot putter saw him take home Low Putts whilst Roger Finnie won Low Gross. Our Low Net winners on the day were Simon Reynolds, Joseph D’ Cruz and Laurie O’Connor.

Congratulations to all our winners and detailed results can be found here: Form_ Current Results modern220919

Sunday 15th September 2019 Riverside

Posted on September 16, 2019 by rogerfinnie

The Day

Sunday saw us back at Riverside for our regular Sunday game and the 4th round of the Jakarta Inter-League competition for 2019. As usual there were a healthy number of Tee Setters present across many teams and 23 choose to join the Tee Set game as well the JIL competition.

Being a regular event now, Riverside continued to make tweaks to the arrangements which contributed to the smooth running of the day. We were all off in good time with the shot-gun start and finished in good time with the fair weather.

No newcomers this week but a warm welcome back to David Baglivo who was back in town after 42 weeks away.

A big thank you to Simon Oxley and Ric Wymer for making all the arrangements on the day for both Tee Set and JIL and to the Riverside team for their support as usual to a good day.

The Play

Despite the heat of JIL games, there were no skirts and no Monster Putter so the Treasurer needed to be content with 2 contributions for Most Strokes with VP Ric Wymer and Ezra Alexander sharing this honor. First Sandy went to Keith Gorman and First Birdie to Shawn Berg. Low Gross went to Simon Reynolds.

Winning his fine back for Low Net B was Ezra Alexander where he was joined by Laurie O’Connor for Low Net C and after an excellent 78 gross, Low Net A winner Mark Fiorello.

Congratulations to all our winners and detailed results are here: Form_ Current Results riverside 150919

In the JIL matches, Tee Set ran out winners 8-2 over Sandbaggers whilst in the other matches, Tin Cups won by the same margin over Sentul Swingers and Cloggies beat Pocksia 9-1. With 1 round remaining, Tee Set lie second in the table, 4 points behind defending Champions Tin Cups.

Posted on September 12, 2019 by rogerfinnie
Riverside

This Sunday we take the short trip down to Junction 19 on the Jagorawi toll to visit the excellent Riverside course. The Greg Norman designed Riverside is always one of the most interesting challenges on the Tee Set schedule with the Shark’s trademark optical illusions regularly fooling the unwary.

In addition to our weekly schedule, this Sunday sees the 3rd round of the 2019 Jakarta Inter-League season as Tee Set’s team looks to build on its solid start to the league. As usual, for those Tee Set players participating in JIL (whether for Tee Set or otherwise), please also sign up as normal for the weekly competition so we can capture you for both events.

To join us for the fun of one of Jakarta’s finest courses on Sunday just sign up here as usual. Green fees of Rp850,000 including a shared cart and some free range balls with a tee time of 11.30pm: please be there before 10.30am as we will have a shot-gun start so it takes a little more time to get bags/players organized and out to the respective holes

Other events
